What is a CPAP Nightstand?
If you suffer from sleep apnea and are a CPAP/BiPAP user then you know one of the most difficult things is to find the perfect place to put your CPAP/BiPAP machine.
This may involve moving the layout of the room around or purchasing another piece of furniture to accommodate your CPAP/BiPAP machine. A simple coffee table will not do the trick so we think one piece of furniture we think you should consider is nightstands for CPAP machines.
They are specially-made nightstands that store your CPAP machine and accessories all in one convenient place. Most include either a rollout shelf or a compartment with a lid where you can store your CPAP machine.
They can also include hooks for your CPAP hose and face mask and a specially made opening, either on the back or the side, for your power cords. In this post, we will discuss what a CPAP nightstand is, the benefits of having one, some recommendations for them, and where you can purchase them.
Benefits of Having a CPAP Nightstand
A CPAP nightstand can be extremely beneficial for CPAP users. It is a place where you can have your CPAP equipment all together to make sure nothing gets lost or damaged, in other words, they give you easy access to your CPAP machine.
Many of these nightstands allow you to place your CPAP machine and accessories in a compartment of a shelf which leaves the top to double as a bedside table. Many of these nightstands have moisture-resistant surfaces to make sure no water damage occurs to your CPAP machine.
A lot of them are inconspicuous enough that they can be placed in the living room and no one will know that is a CPAP nightstand. For added convenience the more “high-tech” nightstands offer outlets and USB ports built into the nightstand, so you do not even have to get out of bed to plug in your CPAP machine as well as having the option to charge your other devices.
These nightstands can also help protect your CPAP equipment such as your CPAP air hose or CPAP mask by including hooks or hanger to hang them up when not in use.
Many of these nightstands offer a rollout shelf as I mentioned above but if you want to hide your CPAP machine more effectively, there are CPAP nightstands with doors or compartments you can hide your CPAP machine and accessories in.

The outlet is our favorite part about this nightstand because it allows you to plug and unplug your CPAP machine without ever getting out of bed.

Another helpful feature is that this nightstand has a built-in lamp. The lamp can aid you if you encounter a problem with your CPAP machine in the middle of the night. Another thing we like about this nightstand is that it is small and doesn’t weigh a lot meaning it can be placed almost anywhere and it is not a hassle to move it.
